Gonarezhou, named “The Place of Elephants“, is Zimbabwe’s second-largest National Park and one of its most famed wilderness areas. Stretching over 5,053 square kilometers, some 1.25 million acres, from the Save River in the north to the Mwenezi River to the south, the Park is home to some of the most spectacular landscapes in southern Africa – including the iconic Chilojo Cliffs.
Gonarezhou is a unique conservation success story, involving a true conservation partnership between the Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority and the Frankfurt Zoological Society.
Gonarezhou National Park is Zimbabwe’s second largest park and lies in the South Eastern corner of Zimbabwe bordering Kruger National Park in South Africa and Limpopo National Park in
Zimbabwe. It forms part of the Great Limpopo Trans-frontier Conservation Area and covers 5,000 kilometers.
The park is home to all of the big 5: elephant, buffalo, rhino, lion, and leopard in addition to these hosts over 100 mammal species, 400 bird species, and 50 fish species including Zambezi shark and small-tooth sawfish at the confluence of the Save and Runde; which also happens to be the lowest point in Zimbabwe at 162m above sea level.
The semi-arid climate is covered in wooded grasslands with alluvial, mopane, and miombo woodlands as well as towering baobab trees.
